Kadi said: "I’m happy and sad at the same time. What a great time. I’ve had such an incredible time.

"I’ve made amazing friends.

"I faced some fears, and to be fair, it still feels very surreal to be on such an iconic show.

"But most of the time you forgot it was a show.

"Coming from Congo, we have a massive rainforest, which I’ve never visited, I feel like I’ve had a taste of how my great grandparents and my grandparents will have grown up and now explains why they were so humble, where they would they just handled a bare minimum.

"I’m telling you, it’s so crazy, because even when you’ve got no food, like you’re hungry, it goes to show that we are enough as a people, as human beings.

"We are we are enough."

Eddie also said he hoped reality TV star Jack Osbourne will be crowned the King of the jungle and win the series.

His departure comes after sports broadcaster Alex Scott was voted off on Friday night.

Sunday night’s episode also saw some celebrities win letters from home, bringing tears to the campsite, as well as a brand new leadership after EastEnders actress Shona McGarty stepped down as camp leader after she revealed that contraband, in the form of butter, was found in the food trunk.

As punishment, she had to decide to either step down as camp leader or lose two stars won in the day’s trial, picking the former to spare the celebrities.

McGarty said: "I’m not responsible for it, but I used it.

"I don’t know where it came from, but I saw it and my eyes lit up and I used it."

The campmates speculated it could have been Alex, prior to being voted out, as she had been caught bringing in salt into the camp.

As McGarty stepped down from her publicly voted leadership position, the celebrities took on a vote to appoint a new camp leader with comedian Ruby Wax winning by a landslide.

Wax told her campmates: "Things are about to change.

"No more Mrs Nice Guy!"

She went on to demand that McGarty would be her footstool, rapper Aitch would be her entertainer and social media star Ginge, also known as Morgan Burtwistle, would be her dancer.

Osbourne said: "Ruby as leader, pure insanity.

"The craziest dictatorship I think the world will ever know."

Later around the camp fire, Aitch, Ginge and Osbourne plotted a rebellion against Wax.

Ginge said: "We are making a stand versus them."

Aitch agreed: "I’ve got a lot of things on my chest that need to come off."

Osbourne said: "Viva la revolution!"

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! airs at 9pm on Virgin Media One.
